RecNo()-1 in load script

[ssssssss88888888]

Hello, 

We are just curious, we are reviewing the if script function article, and we are wondering why the script includes RecNo()-1. we understand why the RecNo() function is included, but not sure why it would give a value of -1? Any help would be appreciated !

SET FirstWeekDay=0; Load Date(MakeDate(2022)+RecNo()-1) as Date Autogenerate 14;

Hi @ssssssss88888888 , i think is just to start with the first date, because recno() starts in 1, and the script wants to starts adding 0
